Insurance - COBRA
After your eligibility for group health care coverage ends, you may be able to purchase continued medical and dental benefits, on an individual basis, for a period of time under a federal law known as the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA).
Enrollment
To continue coverage, the covered person must complete a COBRA continuation enrollment form within 60 days after their group coverage terminates. The COBRA participant must pay the required monthly costs for the continuation of coverage. If you have any questions or need COBRA enrollment forms, contact the Office of Insurance Management, 208-332-1860, ogi@adm.idaho.gov
